(beating the pitch to the plate)
Other posters have given you the correct answer, but perhaps you're not sure when "action" (FED) or the "play" (OBR) begins. I can't give you an exact rule cite, but the action or play begins at the time of the pitch rather than when the ball reaches the plate. It is similar to a stealing runner who reaches his advance base before the ball is hit foul. The runner returns to the base occupied at the time of the pitch.
